yea of course every one knows they recruit the 5th/6th graders to play high school ball 4 years later.....

Actually thats about the age where you can tell if someone has potential.

Why didn't Marcus Fridley go to Dickinson Trinity I would say that every year before he started high school he was the best player in the state in that age group so why wasn't he there???

Your grammar is coming along nicely. fbinnd's intelligence is finally starting to rub off on you.


im not going to bash fbinnd or anything but seeing that i have had no conversations with you at all why would you feel the need to bash me?  hahaha i can talk very nice if i am in no hurry and currently i am in no hurry but can someone answer the question

why didnt fridley go to trinity?

He wasn't given a scholarship:P.

How come everytime someone transfers to a private school it's because of athletics??? Maybe that little 8 year old is being sent to a private school because he/she had and older brother/sister at this public school and his/her parents were sick of the school system. There you go assuming again that just because a child transfers to a school, it's recruiting.

I've been to younger traveling tournaments (mine and my brothers) for the last 8 years. How come there aren't private school coaches there? You make it sound like all these private school coaches go around drooling over the 5'11" 5th grader.

But FBINND, since you are SOOOO convinced that private schools bring in these studs at a young age. Prove one to me. Elementary basketball starts at the 5th grade level I believe. I know there are traveling tournaments for 4th graders out there. So if you can find me a stud athlete that went to a private school such as Vetter of Ryan this year or maybe Glasser from Trinity from a couple years ago, that started out elementary and middle school at a public school and then transfered to a private school. You might have a case.

My last point. WHY DO YOU THINK PRIVATE SCHOOLS WIN BECAUSE OF STUDLY RECRUITS WHEN 2 of the 3 TEAMS THIS YEAR AT STATE DIDN'T EVEN REALLY HAVE ONE!!! Don't get me wrong, Friesen and Rising were both great players. But they were the only 2, on both teams, that were above average talent players. Trinity had a bunch of average talent players who play great defense, have a great coach, and know how to win. Shiloh had a bunch of young sophomores, a great coach, and played real well towards the end of the year. Oh ya, they also know how to win.
Must have been a slow recruiting year that year huh FBIIND?

Hey FBIIND...Let's stay on task and answer my above question. I love how the things you have no comeback for you ignore.

Chad Glasser was costing them to much.  But seriously fbinnd what  evidence do you have.  Stop with all the ACCUSATIONS!!!!!!

I'd also get mad if I was getting it handed to me by 30 in the biggest game of the season

ha ha wow are you serious there are tons of 5th/6th grade studs in just bismarck mandan not all pan out and some come from out of nowhere I can even think of 10 players as a 7th grader I thought were going to be really good just from traveling ball and none of them played HS but were studs in 7th and 8th grade

Well yea thats true in bigger towns 4 sure...but I was meaning in real small town basketball. Kids usually keep playing because they will actually have a chance 2 play rather then have the risk of being cut.

In small towns when theres studs in 7th and 8th, yeah they usually pan out. (reference- Kyle Carr, Mark Bakkum and plenty more household names)

the best example for me is James Klunt of Shiloh, he was a good high school player but because he was 5'9" he was overshadowed by Bachmier and Bearstail and opp.  in elementary school he was the same size but everyone else was a close to a foot shorter and weaker so he could do what he want.  as he got older and the kids got bigger he saw more and more time on the bench even though his skills stayed the same

which is even more of a ridiculous statement saying that parachiols recruit at jr. high and grade school what stud transfers just for basketball.  Because in his small town hes probably the talk at bars and diners for years to come and I can't think of a single one transfering.

ha ha yea he was a blackhole though you weren't getting it back when he touched it which is a good reason he rode the bench but also he didn't get any better or bigger since he was like 13

Why do people just pick at the private schools region 5 has two Native american teams and it seems there players just hop back and forth for the past coupe of years to make a better team from year to year and I've also noticed it happens on other reservations also

It's called being JEALOUS...No one is accusing public or private schools that don't dominate of recruiting.  The people who accuse schools of recruiting are the type that always have to point fingers or have someone to blame when things don't go the way THEY want them to.....

And if it is true that May went from South to North and then tried to get back to South this year I think that is pretty sad.

I am pretty sure May didn't try to go back, or he would have most likely been allowed to. He did go from South to North, but that was two or three years ago. There is also no recruiting going on in the Fargo area that I have ever heard of. Some of the players start at North and go to South and some do the opposite, but you must realize others students in the area do the same.

Overall I believe most parents just want a school were their kids will do well and learn, and have other reasons than sports to send their kids to Oak Grove or Shanley.
